ABOUT

Who is Donn Felker?

A builder, writer, and the guy who refuses to get left behind.

Hi, I'm Donn.

I’m a builder and a writer. I’ve spent 20+ years shipping software, writing books on technology and freelancing, and running my own companies, and a 15+ year consultancy.

Years ago I was at the center of mobile development, hosting a popular podcast and helping build some of the biggest apps in the world. When the ground shifted to AI, I didn’t wait around. Today I run an AI team at Polygon and build TRXN, a payment product for AI agents.

I write for people who build and refuse to get left behind: using AI for real work, shipping real things, and the discipline to stay sharp in this new digital frontier.
